Welcoming him, Mark Thorne, CMO at Esports Technologies said, "I've had the great pleasure of working with Michael on a number of occasions over the last seven years and his knowledge and understanding of the affiliate market is unparalleled, as is his reputation amongst affiliate partners.

"As we continue to look at expanding Esports Technologies' product offering, [Mr Holm] is not only an excellent fit but is also perfectly placed to help us pioneer our affiliate model for esports and our business as a whole as we embark on a period of expansion and development".
